Chapter 71
Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason)
Chapter 71 Who Has the Phone?
Ainsley suspected many people. Kaitlin and Lindsay should be the people who hated her the most. Cason might not do that, but he was still suspicious. After all, the current him overturned her previous impression of him.
Kaitlin took a leave because of yesterdayâs banquet and was now at home.
Without any hesitation, Ainsley went to the Baldryâs place.
The ***who opened the door saw Ainsley and was shocked. After all, Kaitlin and Lindsay swore Ainsley at home all day.
âMs. Easton, why are you here?â
Ainsley got to the point. âIâm looking for Cason.â
âMs. Easton, Mr. Baldry is not home. Please come another day.â
âWho is it?â A gentle voice came from inside the door.
Kaliyah walked over and saw that it was Ainsley. For a moment, she did not know how to react. She could only chuckle awkwardly. âWhy are you here?â
Ainsley didnât say any pleasantry and cut to the chase. âWhen I attended the banquet yesterday, I left my phone here. I came to get it.â
âMs. Easton, we didnât see your phone when the ***did the cleaning yesterday. Think about it again. It may be somewhere else,â Kaliyah said, confused.
âYou can ask the /***.â
Kaliyahâs face was gloomy. She looked at the *** who opened the door and asked, âDid you see a phone when you were cleaning yesterday?â
The ***thought about it and said, âNo, I cleaned the hall with another person. I didnât see any phone except for glasses and snacks.â
âMs. Easton, look, we donât have your phone. It may be somewhere else. Hurry up and look for it.â Kaliyah gestured for Ainsley to leave.
Before Ainsley came, she knew that she couldnât get an answer. She was just here to see Kaliyahâs reaction She was sure that Kaliyah didnât know about this.
âKaliyah! Who is it?â Kaitlin came down. Just as she was about to get herself a cup of water, she saw Kaliyalı standing at the door.
Kaitlin looked carefully and saw that it was Ainsley. She put down the cup and rushed to the door. âWhat are you doing here again? Do you think the trouble yesterday isnât enough?â
Kaliyah helplessly said, âKaitlin, Ms. Easton said that she left her phone here. I already told her that we didnât see it, but she did not believe me.â
âDo you think weâll steal your phone? You lost it and came to look for us. You canât be thinking of a random reason to get close to my brother, right?â
Kaitlin looked at Ainsley with a look of disdain.
Kaliyah was startled, and her expression was a bit gloomy.
âSince you didnât see it, I will be leaving.â Ainsley knew that Kaitlin wasnât the one taking it.
âRather than wasting your time looking for your phone here, youâd better think of a way to invite Mollie. I heard that the news of you inviting Mollie has been spread on the campus. If she does not come at that time, you will make a fool of yourself!â Kaitlin said in a gloating manner.
Ainsley looked at her coldly. âI met Mollie yesterday and expressed my invitation. She is yet to reply, so how do you know that she will turn me down?â
âI advise you not to be so confident. Everyone knows that Mollie has rejected several invitations. All the universities that invited her are better than the University of Washington. Do you think that Mollie will agree to the invitation and offend others because of you?â Kaitlin said mockingly.
Ainsley smiled, âI advise you to come to the Psychological Counseling Room when you have time. I will help you with your ****problems, or your sickness will be incurable.â
âYou!â Kaitlin was so angry that she raised her hand and was about to hit Ainsley.
Ainsley took a step back. âI advise you to stop. Last time, I forgave you and let you off. I did not call the police. If you dare to do anything, I will settle all the grudges with you.â
âWe donât welcome you!â Kaitlin put down her hand in the end.
Bang.
The door was slammed shut. Ainsley glanced at it and left.
She went to get a SIM card and bought a new phone.
As soon as she opened the forum, she knew how much trouble the phone call had caused. Most of the students in the Department of Psychology treated Mollie like a celebrity. They even planned to customize a banner to welcome Mollie.
ab Ainsley called Mollieâs assistant again and learned that Mollie didnât have time.
Including the papers, Ainsley got no news about them.
She thought about it and went to the principalâs office.
When Raymond saw her, he smiled, âMs. Easton, you did it. You actually invited Mollie. I think your students will be grateful to you.â
âMr. Ford, I came here to tell you about this matter.â Ainsleyâs expression became more and more serious.
Raymond nodded. âGo ahead.â
âMollie might not necessarily come.â
âWhat?â Raymondâs hand that was holding the cup shook, and the water almost spilled.
âI did meet Mollie yesterday and expressed to her that I wanted to invite her to be the judge of the competition. However, she just said that she had turned down similar invitations. I think I understand what she means. She refused me,â Ainsley said seriously.
âMs. Easton, you canât joke about this matter. If she refused, why did you say she agreed when I called you this morning?â Raymond frowned.
âWhen I went to the banquet yesterday, I lost my phone. I thought it was left in the consulting room, but it wasnât there. Someone must have played a prank on me.â Ainsleyâs tone was gloomy.
âWhy didnât you tell me about this earlier?â Raymond sighed. âThe board knew about the agreement this morning and was to invite reporters.â
Ainsley was surprised. The board actually knew about it this morning.

ï¤Chapter 70 Loveâs Change of Heart ï¤Chapter 872 âWe canât waste any time. The more we delay it, the greater the expectations of the students will be. When the time comes, things will be much worse. I will explain it to the board, and I may need you. to explain it to your superior.â Ainsley understood that the principal was now in a dilemma.
âI think we donât have another choice.â
Just as Ainsley was about to leave, Raymond called out to her, flustered. âWait!â
âWhatâs wrong?â
âItâs too late.â Raymondâs expression turned gloomy.
He showed Ainsley his phone. âThe board told the media about it ten minutes ago.â
Ainsley saw the words on the screen. âUniversity of Washington will invite the psychologist Mollie Randall to become a judge at the Psychology Quiz Show...â
And the Baldry family was the first to release this news.
Ainsley was lost in her memories and once again recalled the expressions of Kaliyah and Kaitlin.
Kaitlinâs first reaction after hearing Ainsley asking about her phone was anger. She even said that Ainsley wanted to get close to Cason, so it should not be her.
Then, Kaliyah could be the only suspect. But there was nothing unusual about their meeting today. Could it really be her?
